2 Samuel 2:1-2 In the course of time, David inquired of the Lord. Shall I go up to one of the towns of Judah? he asked. The Lord said, Go up. David asked, Where shall I go? To Hebron, the Lord answered.

Commentary:

David used God as a basis for his key decisions. While we may not receive such direct and literal answers as it appears David did, asking God through prayer and seeking His answers through the Word can bring similar results for us today.
